Disability advocacy

Anyone who is deep in the trenches of an advocacy movement - whether based on race, gender, religion, disability, or anything else - is faced daily with the question of How Much Advocacy?  When do I speak up and correct someone's offensive word usage and when do I let it go, either because the context is inappropriate or because the offender is just not worth wasting time and energy on?  When do I make an extra push to make the system work for me, and when do I just find ways around the problem?

When is the best advocacy Just Living a Normal Life?
